However, at the last company I worked used Digi ccmx53 soms because they claimed long hardware support. After a few years it became apparent that Digi would not support Linux kernel updates and there was no way to get at the proprietary firmware for sub-components - notably the WiFi radio drivers. I involuntarily spit on the floor if I hear the name RedPine. Not that you'll have kernel problems, but I thought I'd share that. They had settled on Phytec for their IMX SOMs but I don't know what they chose for their Marvell solutions. Russ
